Countries like Taiwan or Israel probably place higher value on reliability of inland food production than most of the world, so we should see most of the development there.

It will be interesting to see.

But I'm skeptical. Even nations that 'should' care about local production often don't, even in the face of obvious consequences and disadvantages. It seems like more often than not the price / market still leans towards cheaper and other concerns are just concerns that aren't addressed.
